Today was the end of an era. Ina, you were the boss in every sense of the word, the most gifted painter, writer and storyteller, the inventor of great turns of phrase and the best grandmother I could ask for. I promise to always stay with my friends.
Slán leat, a Uachtarán.

Thank you all for the birthday wishes! Glad to have made another trip around the sun and to now have as many years as Ireland had counties.

I went to the Algarve many times with my family over the years and I always thought that it was strikingly similar to my county, especially the climate of course!
Each Irish county has been paired with an EU member state for Ireland’s presidency of the European Council

Watching #SelecțiaNațională was like seeing what Eurovision should and could stand for, people coming together to have a good time and not having to be filled with existential dread about a certain country ruining it for their own benefit.

That year off has already done Moldova the world of good. This is like a completely different broadcaster! #SelecțiaNatională2026

Exciting and all none of the Brits will live up to Paudie. #TheTraitors

Thank you 2025 for showing me that there are things worth sticking around for. I believe in the future again. Here's to a 2026 full of adventure and happiness.
Athbhliain faoi mhaise daoibh go léir!

Saudade, saudade, it never truly goes away. I miss you, granddad. #ESC250

Lejla, my all-time favourite Eurovision song. Still as magical as the first time I heard it. #ESC250

France should have won in 1991. Fight me, Sweden. #ESC250

And that's my second song on the list. 🇱🇻 #ESC250

Once again, Telemóveis was ahead of its time and was robbed. #ESC250

Ireland has finally entered the chat! 🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪 #ESC250

First song on my list! Páll Óskar forever! 🇮🇸 #ESC250

I once heard "The Wrong Place" while in the baggage reclaim in Brussels Airport. Not really the song you want to hear while waiting for your luggage. #ESC250

If "Looking Back" hadn't won UMK 2020, we may never have gotten "Ich komme" and Erika's rightful moment in the spotlight. #ESC250

The end of the year wouldn't be the same without it. Let's see what #ESC250 has in store this year!

A day full of warmth, a night of light and a present that is a bit on the nose. Nollaig Shona daoibh go léir!

This weekend, I had the immense honour and privilege of being on the Irish jury for #JESC2025. It was the biggest Eurovision thing I have done since entering the Eurovision media world eight years ago. Míle buíochas do TG4 agus Adare Productions as an deis seo a thabhairt dom.

I have some wonderful memories of covering PreParty ES on the ground and while this is sad news, it's definitely the right decision.
Todo mi apoyo y amor al equipo de Eurovision-Spain. Nos vemos de nuevo un día.
